for Its Extension.

lOr At9 EXteuSlOus
The Postofiice Department furnishes
the following information for post
masters. The ACT of Congress ap.
proved January Q, 1882, authorizes
the issue only of postal notes mot the
payment thereby at such postoffices,
other than money order Offices, as the
Postmaster General may designate.
Every application or petition for ex-
tension Of this privilege should spec
ify the number of the inhabitants Of
the place from which it emanates and
briefly the reason for desiring the ex,
tension OF the postal note system,
and should contain such stateme hts as
would tend to show that this means of
making small remittanccs is needed.
Each application or petition should be
signed by the postmaster of the To-
cality, who will be required to give a
slightly increased bond to cover the
value of the blank notes intrusted to
him, and should be addressed to the
Superintendent OF Money Order Sys-

the slide started from no one here can

that the slide came from the Montana

The Soldier School Bell.

SOLDIER, Idaho, Jan. ~, 1887.
To THE EDITOR OF THE TIMEs:-
We noticed in your paper of January
14th, an item to the effect that the
School Trustees of Soldier had pur-
chased the HALEY school bell, which
item please allow US to correct. The
bell in question was purchased by a
committee appointed for that purpose,
the money being raised by success
sion of dances, thereby being not
purchased by the Trustees, but by the
people of Camas Prairie. Please in
sert this in your valuable paper and
oblige, H. D. WATSON,

Don't Experiment.

You cannot afford to waste time in
experimenting when your lungs are in
danger. Consumption always seems at
first only cold. Do not permit any
dealer to impose upon you with some
imitation of DIR. Kings New Discovery

be sure you get the genuine. Because
he can make more profit he may tell you
he has something just as good, or just the
same. Don't be deceived, but insist
upon getting DR.. Kings New Discovery,

DALLAS, pENNY.wIsE POLICY.


The Alliance committee are very
fair towards Dallas-in fact clearly
manifest desire that this city shall
come up to the terms named and
with which both Fort Worth and
Waco have already complied. Dallas
has the natural advantages but as
the HERALD has oft before remarked
the day Las passed when natural ad-
vantages outweigh, or even equal
pluck and business enterprise, and
Dallas will have to come with the
spondulix If she would have the Stste
Alliance Cotton Exchange here and
hear the busy hum Of the spipdles
and looms of tho cotton factory.
Dallas is asked to contribute
$4,000 cash to this enterprise, not to
"help the thing along" as they some-
times say in planting ads in a newspa'
per, because it (the Alliance we mean,
not the paper is able to help itself,
aud not as a gift for which no return
is to be made, for that institution and
benificent influence will be worth
many more times that small sum, and
be an advantage III the upbuilding OF
the city incalculable. Fort Worth, en-
terprising, public-spirited and always
wide-awake, sees and realizes the val
ue and is doing more then Dallas to
secure it. Waco, where the State AL
lance has been holding sessions, sees
in the Farmers Of Texas, an organized
strength which would be power OF
commercial and industrial advantage
to that or any city securing their head
quarters and winning their favor.
Will Dallas monied men see tidal
las men who have their wealth sailed
down in realestate to be benefited by
every new enterprise and every addi-
tional manufacturing industry. They
are the ones who will be MOST benc-
fitted, and who, if they
are not so penurious that
they would refuse TO advance
their own interest If thereby the
measure would be also public benefit,
can do a great deal for themselves.

The whole world is borrower
from the humblest forty-acrc farmer
to the fountain in - where? - from
whence comes the wave which
reaches the farmer with loan and a
mortgage OH his crop The Louis
vile Courier-J Journal thus shows how
New York gels much of the
money she loans the South
on her cotton crop: New York
has been mystifying the pundits of
finance by reporting some five to sew
EN- million dollars of gold IN TRANSIT
from Europe to that city at a juncture
of highly unfavorable trade bal
ances, aud at time also when the
foreign disposition is rather to sell
than 10 buy our securities. In the alb
scnce of less discreditable explanation
than the SPECULATION of selling chick
ems before they are Matched, it
may be safely inferred that
New York is already dis
counting The cotton crop. Millions of
dollars of sterling bills are to be
drawn against cotton after it shall be
ripened, aud picked, and ginned, and
shipped, and they are simply borrow
ing on this hypothetical cotton by dis
counting the exchange to be drawn"

The Agricultural Wheel is GROWN,

The Agricultural Wheel is growing

steps in advocating a division of the
lands" which it is said will make the

socialism which the HERALD is glad
doesn't thrive in Texas, or even in AL

No one need take our word, but simply ask

sales here ut home with SO little advertis-
